Chapter 21: I want to know you the way no one ever did .

Shou Wu left and after sometime a handsome man entered the office .

The man was wearing a Dark Blue three-piece business suit. He had a SmartWatch on his wrist which was flickering time now and then. He walked in with an extreme calm demeanour. He had a classy and decent approach to him.

Rong Xinghe glanced at him and then pretended to be extremely busy .

She quickly reverted her eyes back to the files in front of her , "Please , have a seat Mr. Xi .We meet again ."

Xi Yuan smiled as he knew she was doing a pretent.

How cute !

Xi Yuan : (in a threatening voice) " I am here for a very important discussion , Military Chief Xinghe ! "

Sh*t ! He was definitely here for revenge !

Rong Xinghe : " Please , carry on ."

Xi Yuan : " About last night ...."

Rong Xinghe :(nervous) " About last night ? "

Xi Yuan : " I never ...."

Bam!

Rong Xinghe closed the files she was reading with a thud....

Rong Xinghe : " I know you never thought that something like that would happen to you ever, Mr.Xi. But i apologised to you ! And I apologise again ! I know i was wrong but it was your fault as well.....why did you wore such clothes ? "

Hearing Rong Xinghe blabbering about his clothes last night , the man raised his eyebrows and started laughing .

Eh?

What was it ?

He was so wierd. Serious at one moment , laughing at the other.

Xi Yuan controlled his laughter with a lot of difficulty and said ,"I intended to say i never got a call from your assistant or manager ."

Rong Xinghe : " What call? "

Xi Yuan : " To discuss when i needed to join as your bartender and to discuss my salary. "

Rong Xinghe : " ....."

Xi Yuan : " I am not going to take a cent less than 10,000 RMB a month. I am telling you already. "

He continued to tease her.

She had said that she wanted to hire him as his personal bartender.

He remembered everything she had said to him.

Was he for real ?

What a wierd man , Xinghe thought.

One of the most famous businessmen of Country X , was sitting in front of her discussing the salary he wanted as her bartender.

What was going on ?

She just didn't knew what to say to him ...

" Don't worry , I am just kidding " Xi Yuan said when he observed the girl's tensed shoulders. He was not there to make her feel uncomfortable , after all.

Xi Yuan : " I simply wanted to ask if i could donate anything to the military. "

Rong Xinghe raised her eyebrows , " Donate? "

Xi Yuan : " Yeah ! My cousin sister is getting married three months later , and it is a custom in Xi family that we donate money to the family of martyrs. Can that be arranged ? "

Rong Xinghe was very delighted to hear him say that.

She had always been working for the betterment of Country X and its citizens and she actually liked the people who worked with the same purpose.

'Youth Team' was her idea and she believed that a human's life is useless if it has never helped another human in its whole lifetime.

A genuine smile occurred on her lips.

Xi Yuan's heart started racing extremely fast when he saw her smile with such purity and innosence.

Damn ! Not again !

Rong Xinghe : "Of course , it can be arranged Mr. Xi. I will personally make suitable arrangements. "

Xi Yuan : " And i have one more request , Ms. Xinghe "

Rong Xinghe : " Yes ? "

Xi Yuan : " I want to join 'Youth Team' , is that possible ?"

Rong Xinghe was confused .

Youth Team ?

Why ?

Donating to the army might be ritual in his family , but being a part of 'Youth Team' ?

It was very tiresome because each and every member of 'Youth Team' had to get personally involved in the way it worked. It was not as if he could just write a cheque

and walk away.Did he even had that much time to get involved with the orphan kids of NGO ?

Rong Xinghe always was conscious about those kids , so she asked cautiously ," Why ? "

Why ?

Because i want to get close to you .

Because i want to get close to your heart.

Because i want to know you the way no one ever did.

Xi Yuan , of course , could not say these things to her yet so he said , " Because i would love to know their story. I know it seems as if i would just give money and walk away but trust me, it is not like that. I sincerely want to be a part of their life. I have done my research on 'Youth Team' and i know that i have to invest my money as well as my time in this. And i am ready to do that ."

" Seems like Mr. Xi is quite interested in social welfare. Nice. How do you think you would invest your time in the NGO ? "

Rong Xinghe said.

" I am not that good in conversing with kids. So , I would love to handle all the administrative work of the NGO. "

Xi Yuan said.

Rong Xinghe : "You think you can take time out from your busy schedule ?

Xi Yuan : " Don't you manage to get time out of your busy schedule , military chief ? "

Rong Xinghe was stunned for a moment.

He had actually done a lot of research on Youth Team and the NGO .

He was even ready to shoulder such a huge responsibility for the kids .

But that didn't mean she hadn't done research.

This morning , she had asked her brother Lu Wei about him and he had said that he was a responsible man without any shady personality.

He was actually genuine and had no ill intentions for the kids.

She started to observe him closely.

This man was not at all egoistic. He never took the incident past night to heart.

He had calm eyes .

He was good with words.

He was quite intimidating , just like a noble king.

Not to mention , the way he carried himself. It was very decent.

Other than her six brothers , she had never seen a man like this .

She was actually starting to get curious as to know what exactly was this man like ?

She was slowly starting to get impressed by him.

Rong Xinghe stood up from her chair ,

" Alright then , Welcome to the 'Youth Team' , Mr. Xi."

Xi Yuan felt a sense of joy in his heart as soon as he heard her say that.

But Wait ! Something was wrong!

Xi Yuan : "Thank You. But I would appreciate if you would call me Yuan from now on , Xinghe. "

Rong Xinghe was dumbfounded the moment the man called her in such an intimate tone.

And what more ?

He wanted her to call him by his name !

Rong Xinghe : " Huh?!?!"

Xi Yuan : " As far as i know , the members of 'Youth Team' are said to be the friendship goals and are known for their unity. If that is the case , i am your friend from now on.

Wouldn't this 'Mr.Xi' and 'Ms. Xinghe' be a bit too formal ?"

Rong Xinghe thought about it and said with a smile , " Yuan ".
